WORSE TmAN SMALLPOX.
A Great Danger Which Mena.
ces an UnsuspiciOus Public.

The Brompton Hospital for con
sumptives, in London, reports that
over fifty people out Of every hundred |
consumptives, are victims Of constipa-
ted or inactive kidneys,
Consumption is one of our national
diseases, and the above report goes to
prove what has been said in our col
umns during the last eight years, that
kidney troubles are not only the cause
OF more than half of the cases of con-
sumption, but of ninety out OF every
hundred other common diseases.
They who have taken this position,
made their claims after elaborate in
vestigation, and their proof that they
have discovered a specific for the ter
rible and stealthy diseases, which
have become so prevalent among us,
is wise and convincing.
We have recently received from them
fresh supply of their wonderful ad-
vertising. They have challenged the
medical profession and science to in
vestigate. They have investigated,
and those whe are frank have admit
ted the truth of their statements.
They claim that ninety per cent of
diseases come originally from inactive
kidneys that these inactive kidneys
allow the blood to become filled with
uric acid poison; that this uric acid
poison in the blood carries disease
through every organ.
There is enough uric acid developed
in the system within twenty-four
hours to kill half dozen men.
This being a scientific fact, it re-
quires only ordinary wisdom to see
the effect inactive kidneys must have
upon the system.
If this poison is not removed, it
ruins every organ. If the bowels,
stomache or liver become inactive, we
Know it at once, but other organs
help them out. IftN9 kidneys become
constipated or dorma 1t, the warning
comes later on, and often when it is
too late, because the effects are remote
from the kidneys and those organs are
not suspected to be out of order,
Organs that are weak and diseased
are unable to resist the attacks of this
poison, and the disease often takes the
form Of and is treated as local af-
Fiction, when in reality the real cause
OF the trouble was inactive kidneys.
Too many medical men OF the pres
ent day hold what was a fact twenty
years ago, that kidney diesase is incur
! able, according to the medicines
} authorized by their code. Hence
J they ignore the original cause OF The
J disease itself, and give their attention
to the useless treating of local effects
They dose the patient with quinine
morphine, or with salts and othe
physics, hoping that thus natur
5 may cure the disease, while the kid
+ neys continue to waste away with in
e fammation, liberation and decay, an,
the victim eventually perishes.
